Morphological and histochemical changes accompanying testicular development and spermatogenesis have been described in the ruminal trematode Paramphistomum cervi during the course of its infection in sheep. Small testes of 4-week-old worms contain a few primordial germ cells. Spermatogonial cells appear first in 6-week-old worms and increase in number by the 10th week when the testes become large and follicular. Mature spermatozoa appear in the testes of 16-week-old worms. General pattern of spermatogenesis is the same as described for other trematodes, i.e. a single spermatogonium gives rise to 32 spermatozoa. Cytophore is formed at secondary spermatogonial stage. Various spermatogenic stages contain proteins, glycogen and phospholipids, however, the amount of phospholipids decreases as the maturation proceeds. The mature spermatozoa stain strongly with PAS. The enucleated residual mass contains HgBB-positive proteins and lipid granules. The morphological and cytochemical changes occurring during various spermatogenic stages have been correlated with corresponding histoenzymological changes in the cytoplasm. Frequency of spermatogenesis has been worked out which indicates that the transformation of secondary spermatogonia into spermatids is relatively fast as compared to transformation of primary spermatogonia into secondary spermatogonia and stages of spermateleosis.
